ESPN spends a ton of $$$ on the SEC…so of course there is bias.

Guy calling the game even said Roll Tide when the QB scored, before it was called back.

They said something at the beginning of the game about how this is SEC coverage for the game. And going into half-time they said something along the lines of "in keeping with the SEC audience" before they showed highlights relevant to those viewers. This broadcast on ESPN is geared toward the SEC viewer. I don't think they ever claimed to be putting on a neutral broadcast. Wherever anyone got that idea from isn't correct. It's biased toward where they get the most viewers/ money, aka The SEC.

Still think we need to get byrum throwing outside the pocket. His running ability is going to draw them in. They will bring more pressure 2nd half. I think they rushed 3 cause they didn’t expect us to move ball and they will switch it up this 2nd half.

We are playing it so safe

As much as I'd love to push it, we are in this game. No reason to risk that last fourth down call. You'd basically be giving Bama a huge 3 points or more if you dont get that 4th down. And we would have been fighting to kick a field goal. That was a smart punt.

Yeah its been pretty smart play so far. Need to hit those passes, and get less PIs.

They are going to play to contain our QB runs all second half especially if we cant pass the ball. We gotta figure it out. We need to throw in some jet sweeps or screens or something to get the passing game going

To be fair, surely the coaches are telling him to miss long rather than short, give our receivers a chance to run under it.  But yeah, he’s missing the touch that we could really use in this game 

He seems off this year and I'm a big BB fan.

Not sure anyone thought it would be a neutral broadcast. ESPN owns the SEC rights. Its a night game at Alabama. Just pointing out how funny it is that they dont even try to act neutral in any way

I feel like he did the same thing last year. The first few games he had a noticeably different throwing motion. He was missing a lot of easy passes and deep passes early on. He got better as the season went on. I dont think he'll struggle this bad all year. He has a new body to get used to with all that muscle plus he's still only a sophomore
